A Few Problems with my 69 Deville Convertible

Driver and passenger Door panels are cracked and split the are basically gorgeous red and white, Is there anyone out there who can fix them?
On mine the windshield wiper control is part of the driver side Door. Nothing works when I push the lever up,, never mind the washer button. Whats the best way to even get onto the Wiper Motor to check if it is still working. Also can anyone tell me were I can get a schematic for the wiring?
Thanks for any help you can give

nice car and nice interior, like said before thats not likely original interior, so an upholstery shop will have to take a look or maybe if you know a mobile interior repair guy? I have a three inch tear in my 69 sedan deville and I work at a used car dealership and our mobile guy is going to try and fix the padding and cloth (why it ripped in the first place) so it wont wear out and allow the springs to tear the seat for $50 bucks, while an upholstery shop wanted 1k to redo the whole seat which is in like new condition exept the small tear and worn padding on the drivers side.

Nods. Cadillac had no "piped" accents yes the seats and back panels have been redone. However the color scheme is supposed to be original and so are the door panels. That's according to our local Cadillac dealer who did some research on the Vin Number. Would You believe it was delivered January 1969 in Billings Montana. A Convertible? I will be using it for Sunday drives and Parades maybe. Just something to keep alive...smiles

When reliable those 1969's are great long distance cruisers. Back in the seventies an aunt who lived in Scottsdale had a '69 Sedan de Ville that I would drive from there to L.A. occasionally for her. The seats were great and it was a real mile burner. Great Interstate car!
